The Basement Build – Episode IX
Podcast: Play in new window | Download (57.5MB)
Episode IX is focused on the installation of our beautiful second hand oak floor. It’s remarkable to see how much closer this whole project appears to be finished with just the addition of flooring. I think now my back and knees are both ready for a little break. I was also hoping this whole process would end in a nice round number, but it doesn’t look like we’re going to get away with single digits only.
